National Museum of Marine Science and Technology- Provisional Office was located in Keelung. I would never find this place if I visit Keelung by myself. I even asked my friends living in Keelung about the Chaojing Ocean Center, and they had no idea about it. Maybe when it officially open in September will attract everyone's eye. The whole Ocean Center might be very large because the brochure showed that there were at least ten sites we could visit. But the main reason we came here was to have an understanding about the marine life related to Taiwan, so we spent most of the time staying in the main building. The tour guide was nice and conveyed what she knew as clearly as possible. Then I found that the volunteer or the tour guide in each site we visited always said that,"Taiwan is so unique....","Taiwan is number one....".Well, if they could provide us some specific facts, that would be more convincing. For example, the guide said that our aquaculture is number one in the world because of the "complete aquaculture". But that does not mean there is no complete aquaculture in other countries. "Number one" is because of the number of species we raised. But we have to think about the reason why we need so many kind of species to raise. I think the reason is that Taiwanese is uses to having them as daily meals. In fact, it is strange to say we are number one. This technology is very common. The different is that there is different purpose to apply this technology.
